This week please review the material on the Harlem Renaissance and examine the political nature of the period. Now listen to KRS one (video here) and H.E.R. & YBN Cordae Perform an Eye Opening & Evocative “Lord is Coming” at the 2019 BET Awards (https://youtu.be/GipRLnGBfwI) and examine the political context of these contemporary artists.
